Out-doing each other, they arm
the Oppressor, increasing the harm.
They kiss Zionist ***…
Neither one gets a pass;
And it’s too late to sound an alarm.

If for either my ballot were cast,
Then my guilt and regret could outlast
The slow death of Beirut,
And bear bitter bad fruit,
Till the Zionist shadow has passed.

What, in truth, does my vote stand to gain
Or prevent Palestinian pain . . .
Such a delicate line.
Should I vote for Jill Stein—
Or just sit this one out and abstain?
